  "account": "Nvidia reportedly halted GeForce RTX 5090 production, shifting focus to AI data center and professional GPUs. This decision was made by an unknown factory, as cited by @hongxing2020 and confirmed by @Zed__Wang. The RTX 5090 series, including D variants for the Chinese market, will no longer be manufactured. The highest-end GeForce card will now be the RTX 5080 24GB, with the 16GB version discontinued. While officially unconfirmed, this move would be economically advantageous for Nvidia, allowing them to sell GB202 processors on more lucrative data center and professional graphics cards. Higher-margin products like the RTX Pro 5500, featuring 84GB of GDDR7 memory and 21,760 CUDA cores, will replace the RTX 5090. GeForce RTX 5090 boards may still be available for a time, but availability will decline over time. Nvidia may be preparing a refresh of its GeForce RTX 50-series lineup, potentially with the RTX 5080 Super. The company is also developing its next-generation Rubin-based GeForce RTX 60-series GPUs, expected in late 2027 or 2028. If the reports hold true, Nvidia could leave the enthusiast gaming market without a GB202-class flagship for a considerable period.",
